Testimonials

I want to thank Mr David Allamby and everybody at Focus for performing a life changing experience for me.

Having worn contact lenses for over 20 years, Lasik is something that I had been thinking about for a long time, but never quite had the courage to do.

The team at Focus are brilliant. They go through very clearly and thoroughly about the whole process, and how you feel after the operation, making you feel at ease. The operation takes less than 10 minutes.... I remember looking at a very blury Mr Allamby before he started the procedure and then looking up at him, once the Lasik had been done and I could see him (fairly) clearly. A modern miracle, performed in less than 10 minutes!!!!! I can't describe the grin I had on my face while being taken home and seeing London's monuments with my own eyes, no contact lenses needed! It may sound silly, but it was the most liberating feeling I had had, for a long time.

I would, and have, recommended The Focus Clinic to anyone that will listen to me raving on about 'amazement' that I experienced with them, and how it has changed my life. It's such an fantastic feeling, being able to see first thing in the morning without having to reach out for your glasses or having to put my contact lenses in. It may sound like a cliche, but I only have one complaint - I wish I did it a lot sooner!

Top class from start to finish.

From the initial consultation through to my six month follow up, Focus has provided excellent care and has always been accessible and available. The results of the procedure have exceeded my expectations and have made a huge impact on my life, I wish I had done it sooner. Thanks to all the team!

A quick, painless procedure that has made so much difference. No more glasses!

After several months of deliberation, I decided that I would like to proceed with having laser eye surgery. So, I went to a very well-known High Street opticians to find out how to proceed, but they told me it was impossible to have laser eye surgery, due to the fact I have an astigmatism in both eyes. After doing some extensive research online I found that Focus Laser vision were able to operate on some patients with astigmatisms. So, I phoned to find out more. From the moment that I picked up the phone and spoke to the receptionist, who was extremely friendly and informative, I had no hesitation in booking my initial consultation.

The thought of having laser eye surgery was extremely daunting, but I can honestly say that from the moment I walked into the clinic, I knew I was in the best place. Every single member of staff I dealt with was friendly, informative, helpful, and caring. Dr Allamby and his team were absolutely fantastic. The procedure didn't take very long and Dr Allamby talked me through every single step. I felt no pain whatsoever. The after-care service and support is second-to-none.

I am happy to report that I now have better than 20/20 vision and no need for glasses anymore. Had I known it would be this easy, I would have had this surgery a long time ago. I simply cannot recommend Focus Laser vision highly enough, they are absolutely outstanding in every way

Ab-so-lute-ly incredible. I can't stop grinning.

It's the morning after and literally no more than 18 hours ago, I was nervously lying down on a clinical bed being told to stare directly at a green flashing light. Now, for the first time in 15 years, I'm looking freely out of the window, tracing the tops of houses in the distant horizon and typing without the need for glasses or contact lenses. For me it feels unreal and I can only describe this 10 minute procedure as bordering miraculous.

It's amazing to think that yesterday, I was short-sighted by around -3.75 in both eyes and suffering from astigmatism. I felt embarrassed and disappointed by my inability to define even the largest full-sized letter E without assistance. Today, on the other hand, in the very same examination room, I somehow managed to surprise myself by being able to reel off the tiniest letters on the bottom of the chart entirely unaided and with my own two eyes. That aside, I was thrilled to learn that my eyes were not only corrected and recovering well but I had attained near 20/12 vision... overnight. Almost twice better than the average 20/20? Gobsmacked is an understatement!

Like most, I've been considering having laser surgery for a while and researched thoroughly into several companies. Having had consultations with most major clinics, I can report that all were highly professional and welcoming - but it was Focus Clinic who stood out as a clear cut above the rest. From the outset, I sensed my eyes would be under the safest supervision and best care possible. Perhaps it was the fact that every staff member here - from reception to treatment room, assistants, technicians, the lovely Emma from patient-care to the formidable surgeon David Allamby - all without exception appeared dedicated to offering the maximum information along with uncompromising attention. Or perhaps it was the unfailing smiles, the extremely thorough examination and re-examination or the proud confidence of having the best laser equipment in the country with an outstanding 100% track record to match? Whatever it was, you won me over and I can truly say that my expectations have been surpassed beyond what I thought was possible! Thank you so so much.

For the first time, I can now understand why the same cliched responses appear again and again from your patients. Yes, the procedure really is that fast. Yes, you really do get the results (if you comply strictly to the aftercare programme). Yes, I really do wish I had done it sooner. And yes, if anyone happened to be considering it, I would urge them to go ahead and do it - and to look nowhere else but you. I cannot recommend you highly enough.

I have worn glasses or contact lenses for 26 years and finally had the opportunity, financially, to look into having laser treatment. I was recommended Focus by 2 separate friends and particularly Dr Allenby. From my first contact with Emma on the phone everyone at the clinic has been friendly, helpful and very reassuring. The clinic carried out various tests on my first visit and were able to give me a number of options. I was sent away with a set of contact lenses to simulate what my vision could be like. This help tremendously with the decision making process of what treatment I would undergo.

On the day I was obviously very nervous and once again the staff were fantastic at reassuring me and helped put me at ease. The actual treatment was very quick and Dr Allenby and his team talked me through each step - even giving me stress balls! Immediately after the treatment I could see more clearly. I am at day 2 and everything is exactly as they had described.

Looking out of my bedroom window this morning was a joy as I could see clearly! Which was as exciting as I had hoped it would be. Thank you everyone.

After years of glasses and contact lenses, I decided a change was in order...but I needed a push towards the laser eye surgery route. Speaking to a friend, she mentioned that she had had the surgery and would thoroughly recommend the place she had it done. After thinking it over some more, I asked her for the details and there began my introduction to the world of Focus Clinics.

From the moment I set foot in their clinic I never felt anything other than comfortable. All my questions were answered in an easy to understand fashion (making me feel less stupid!) and on the day of the surgery you would never have thought I was going to come out with 20:20 vision because it was all just so normal and everyday!

I am so grateful to my friend for recommending Focus Clinics and to the staff at Focus for giving me back my vision without the aid of glasses and contact lenses!!!

Focus have provided outstanding customer care from start to finish. The explanations at each stage have been clear and reassuring. The actual procedure for me was painless with an end result that is amazing and instant! I would and have recommend the procedure and Focus to anyone. My only regret is not getting it done sooner!

Focus has guided me throughout the process, I felt very safe and was glad to have surgery undertaken there. All the staff are caring and professional. Am so glad to have had laser eye surgery, it's definitely life changing!

I had my treatment 18 hours ago and can't believe the result already. From having virtually no decent vision at all without my glasses to what feels like perfect vision is truly amazing. The staff here at Focus are so great. They have made me feel very confident and relaxed about the whole procedure, and have been extremely patient with all my questions. I have already recommended Focus to friends and family!
